the record for timing and all that good stuff. Enjoy!

        A
Are you bored or are you lazy (tell the truth, tell the truth)

Are you blind or are you crazy (tell the truth, tell the truth)
        D
Are you coming back to get me (tell the truth, tell the truth)
           A
Or are you tryin' to upset me (tell the truth, tell the truth)
        E
Are you sick or are you twisted
   D
In love or just enlisted
         A
Tell the truth, tell the truth
         E7
Tell the truth, tell the truth

        A
Are you lame or are you lyin' (which one is it, which one is it)

Are you dead or are you dyin' (which one is it, which one is it)
       D
Do you think I'll be ungrateful (tell the truth, tell the truth)
           A
Or are you trying to be hateful (which one is it, which one is it)
        E
Are you gonna come and get it
        D
Or just tell me to forget it
          A
Which one is it, which one is it
          E7
Which one is it, which one is it

        A
Are you broke or are you busted (tell the truth, tell the truth)

Disappointed or disgusted (tell the truth, tell the truth)
      D
Was I not what you expected (tell the truth, tell the truth)
         A
Or was I properly inspected (tell the truth, tell the truth)
             E
I wish you'd button up your vest
            D
And give my little head a rest
             A
And tell the truth, tell the truth
         E7
Tell the truth, tell the truth
